true for MusiXTeX but not necessarily for 'friends'. An mtx source file
created and edited under DOS will cause paragraph length errors when
compiled with prepmx under *nix due to differing end-of-line formats
between DOS and *nix. I'm hit by this minor problem myself every now and
then as my pc is able to boot win98 as well as linux. The simplest
remedy under *nix is the GNU utility recode ('recode ibmpc').
